Oh God I pray, whether the moon, or sun, or stars

Glisten, shine, or sparkle not

I find You in the deep, or in the dark

db

At once, without notice, or expectancy

Your presence overwhelms

With suddenness and urgency

I become a part of what is whole

Oh God, how grateful, ever grateful am I always

To recreate an image

To mark where we have met

When I seek you – You are there

In ways mysterious yet obvious

Your Spirit prompts my heart to open

And there You always are to enter

Oh faith, my friend, my advocate Teach me love; abolish hate Fear shrivels hearts and tightens flow Remind me of the infinite possibilities you’d have me know Grant confidence for each step I take May Your ways be mine And Your thoughts be my guide db

In the middle of the night

When courage has taken flight

I’m holding on to You

 

When there’s nothing left to bemoan

And I am standing all alone

I’ll be here holding on – holding on to You

 

In darkness I seek Your face

I’m fighting for more faith

With all that I’ve got – I’m holding on to You

 

When darkness turns to light

And I’ve made it through the night

I’ll cling to precious peace – by holding on to You

 

I’ll use this day, like it’s my last

I’ll seek You in the day, not just in the night

With hands and open heart

 

Speak Your truth from mountains high, not just whispers deep inside

Your purposes made known

Proving we are not alone

 

I stand – Holding on to You

I pray – Holding on to You

I love – Holding on to You
